13 February 2013 But transfer grounds specified by institute says that if your parents transfer gets one state to another then u can apply. But in my case there is no transfer of my parents. I am shifting from mumbai to rajasthan with my parents. will they consider it a valid reason. because now it is not possible to stay mumbai.

02 August 2025 Sure! Here’s a sample application format you can use to apply for transfer of your articleship from Mumbai to Rajasthan based on shifting your residence to be with your parents:

---

**To,**
The Secretary
The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India
\[Your Regional Office Address]

**Subject:** Application for Transfer of Articleship from Mumbai to Rajasthan

**Respected Sir/Madam,**

I, \[Your Full Name], am currently undergoing articleship training under the guidance of \[Principal’s Name] at \[Firm’s Name], Mumbai. I have completed approximately 20 months of my articleship as on date.

Due to personal reasons, I am relocating to Rajasthan to reside with my parents, who are living there permanently. As it is not feasible for me to continue my articleship in Mumbai while residing in Rajasthan, I kindly request you to consider my application for transfer of articleship to a suitable principal in Rajasthan.

I am attaching a consent letter from my current principal and other necessary documents as required for the transfer process.

I assure you that I will abide by all the rules and regulations prescribed by the Institute.

Thanking you,

Yours faithfully,
\[Your Name]
\[Registration Number]
\[Contact Details]
\[Date]

**Grounds for Transfer:**

* Shifting residence with parents (though no parent’s job transfer, it is a genuine reason)
* Inability to continue articleship in current city due to personal circumstances

Would you like me to help draft the **consent letter** from your principal as well?
